A maximum of 18 emerging translators will be selected from the shortlisted applicants after an interview. Translated plays might be used for AFTEC’s future programmes. One final translator per play will be chosen and acknowledged by name.
Confirmed Playwrights:
Khairi Anwar (Kuala Lumpur) IQ.Rock (Education in a Malaysian Village)
Lin Meng Huan (Taichung) E.S.D.F. (Earth & Humans)
